The typically stable Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2 were treated with tetrafluoromethane (CF4 ) and hexafluoroethane (C2 F6 ) plasmas. Through interactions between fluoride radicals from the perfluoroalkane plasma and the zirconium-oxygen bonds of the MOF, the resulting materials showed the development of mesoporosity, creating a hierarchical pore structure. It is anticipated that this strategy can be used as a post-synthetic technique for developing hierarchical networks in a variety of MOFs.

Immobilization of fragile enzymes is vital to expanding its application in the extracellular environment. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), as a class of emerging porous materials, are promising platforms for enzyme immobilization owing to their high porosity and tunable structure. However, the interior pores of COFs often fail to play their roles because of inaccessibility, resulting in decreased performance of immobilized enzymes.

Two-dimensional (2D) covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with designable pore structures can be synthesized under the guidance of topology diagrams. Among the five existing edge-transitive topological nets, topology is considered a fine candidate for constructing COFs with ultramicropores. However, all of the reported COFs with topology need the use of -symmetric monomers, which are limited in compound type and difficult to synthesize.

The precise engineering of microporosity is challenging due to the interference at sub-nm scale from unexpected structural flexibility and molecular packing. Herein, the concept of topological supramolecular complexation is proposed for the feasible fabrication of hierarchical microporosity with broad tunability in amorphous form. The 2.

Heteroatom-doped hierarchical porous carbon (AF-MMTC) was prepared with hard template and salt template dual templating agents, and the effects of salt template additions on its micro-morphology, pore structure, specific surface area and electrochemical properties were investigated. The salt template not only acts as a template, but also plays the role of a pore-making agent. AF-MMTC5 has a high specific surface area of 1772 m g, a 41% microporous content and 1.

Organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) severely pollute various environmental water due to their excessive use, and it is extremely urgent to develop novel adsorbents with high adsorption capacities, rapid removal rate and easily recovery for the removal of OPPs. In this study, defect-rich Co/N-doped hierarchically porous carbons (Co/N-DHPCs) were constructed by pyrolyzing acid-etched ZIF-67 precursor. The developed Co/N-DHPCs possessed rich defects, well-developed hierarchical porous structure, high specific surface area and excellent magnetic property, and exhibited large adsorption capacities of 103.
